Buen día, miserables. -
Buen día, miserables.Buen día, miserables.
Hace unas horas fue el solsticio austral. Punto subsolar besando el trópico de Capricornio, día más largo del año (más corto para ustedes las/os boreales), comienzo astronómico del verano y toda esa zoncera de planeta torcido. Tres meses más de Sol de medianoche en el polo sur, como sabrán quienes sigan con atención la cuenta @southpoleviews del inestimable @stefan.
No, no se lo imaginan al leer entre líneas: estoy irritada. El verano, en su sentido astronómico, climático, social o el que fuere, me pone de pésimo humor. Estaré así por lo menos hasta fines de enero. Que el perihelio (4 de enero en 2025) nos ataque sincronizadamente no ayuda. Y sí, ya sé de la distribución de tierras de un hemisferio respecto del otro y de que acá ni durante el monzón (edición sudamericana) se nos forman huracanes en el Atlántico y que tendríamos que agradecer (¿a quién?) y todo. Imagínenme, ahora sí, tecleando en la máquina de escribir invisible. Con dos deditos como un policía.
Les dejo con la presentadora del tiempo de Crónica TV y su dudoso, casi quejoso "¿estalló el verano?". No sé si todo tiempo pasado fue mejor, pero en este renglón no me cabe duda.

I did not end up bootlegging any VCDs to VHS tapes today, but I did start setting up a rig that will allow me to make 5+ VHS tapes at a time from a digital source, a VHS, a DVD, or a VCD.@stibbons @djsundog @ajroach42
If you want to be historically appropriate:

What convinced you to start adding alt text to images you post online?Coming from the culture of printed books which had a caption for every image.

The student who was crying in my office earlier this week because she "couldn't do proofs" got an A on her quiz and wrote an excellent proof so I am having a good weekend at least.I agree absolutely. Erasers are for people who know exactly what they're doing and how to do it. For exploration and learning they're useless.

I wish there was a way to filter out posts that use tags that are unrelated to their post.Hashtag abuse is a blockable offense.
Yes, I know, it's my one-size-fits-all solution, which is no solution at all.

If you feel "overwhelmed" and "bombarded" by a topic being pushed by "the media" (either "mass" or "social"
), your "media consumption habits" 🤮 are bullshit.
